Dark of Night
““Soph?” Dave knocked softly on the door. “Can I come in?”
“It's unlocked,” she called, swiftly wiping her eyes and running both hands down her face.
He opened the door and poked his head in first. “You all right?”
“Yeah,” she said. “I'm feeling much better.”
“You think it was something you ate?”
She just shook her head, because she didn't know what to say or how to say it.
“Next time, please, don't shut me out,” he said.
“I'm sorry,” Sophia said. “I just needed … a little space.”
When they'd first arrived at the hotel and she'd rushed into this bathroom, she'd actually been surprised that Dave had left her alone, despite her insistence.
He'd used the time, though, to change out of his bloodstained shirt and into one of his faded T-shirts, which was good. Bloodstains made her queasy during the best of times.
She was also glad he'd changed because with his T-shirt, jeans, and sneakers, with his hair a mess from running his hands through it, he looked like the Dave she'd known for years—...like a guy who worked in tech support.MoreLess
